Chapter 364: Imperial Court
Chapter 364: Imperial Court
“Grand Elder Huo, can you explain why you single-handedly decided on disqualifying a sect in the sect tournament?” Meng Pao, the leader of the Phoenix Sky Sect and father of Meng Yan asked.
“You of all people should know the rules and tradition, so why did you make such a blunder?” He added.
Meanwhile, Grand Elder Huo stood still in the center of the court where everyone’s eyes were watching him.
“Before I answer you, Sect Leader Meng Pao… may I ask why is your daughter, Meng Yan staying with the Swift Feather Wind Sect?” Grand Elder Huo asked as he snapped his finger.
A projection screen soon appeared and it showed Meng Yan sitting next to Lian Xinyue, cheering loudly for Yang Wei.
“Look at Meng Yan’s happy face when she’s cheering for Yang Wei. It’s completely unlike her behavior when she was trapped here with all those rules and regulations.” Grand Elder Huo added.
Meng Pao kept silent for a few moments when he heard his words.
However, his expression quickly changed as he exuded a powerful aura.
“So what if Meng Yan is in the Swift Feather Wind Sect. Sooner or later, she must return back here whether she likes it or not.” Meng Pao snorted coldly.
Grand Elder Huo could only shake his head at his response.
“Alas… the Sect Leader is blinded by greed and has lost all rationality.” Grand Elder Huo muttered.
Right when Meng Pao was about to speak up again, Grand Elder Huo raised his hand to stop him.
“No need to stay anything else, Sect Leader Meng Pao. You want to strip me of my authority for violating the rules, right. I’ll save you the trouble by resigning myself.” Grand Elder Huo said as he turned around and left.
As much as the people in the Imperial Court wanted to punish Grand Elder Huo for the offense, they didn’t dare to make a move because Grand Elder Huo was not an original cultivator.
After all, his cultivation base is extremely high, and provoking him further might result in multiple casualties and unforeseeable consequences ahead.
Once they could no longer feel Grand Elder Huo’s presence, Meng Pao and the rest in the Imperial Court continued their discussion regarding the Envoy from the Central Zone.
“Sect Leader Meng Pao, what should we do when the Envoy arrives?”
“We can not risk failing our hospitality and must guarantee that the Envoy is satisfied with our arrangement.”
“I have already assigned multiple beautiful women on standby to give the Envoy a great time.”
Meng Pao nodded his head.
“This is our only chance to have our sect be on the radar in the Central Zone. If we can get on the Envoy’s good side, then we can finally contend with others and prove ourselves.” Meng Pao said as he clenched his fist.
He then glanced at the others with a solemn expression. “I don’t care what Grand Elder Huo had said, but Meng Yan must return back as soon as possible. She must serve the Envoy well and provide a better standing for us.”
“Rest assured, Sect Leader Meng Pao. I have already sent some people to capture Meng Yan back.”
“In that case, we should focus on making the sect tournament more exciting, so that the Envoy would enjoy a good show.”
–
While every conspiracy was going on, Yang Wei remained in the Pagoda for more than 5 hours already.
Although there was some sweat leaking off of Yang Wei’s forehead, Yang Wei was enjoying his time.
“Octane Punch!”
With a punch, Yang Wei shattered through the last shadow from the training as he smiled blissfully.
“Well done, Yang Wei.” Fan Ping clapped his hand from the side as he made all the shadows vanish.
“Your records seem to be getting faster as time passes.” He added.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
“Un, compared to last time, I don’t feel tired at all and I could still fight.” Yang Wei said.
“Mhmm, I’ll make sure to adjust the new arrangement for you. However, make sure to not get too haughty despite the success.”
“I know, Senior Fan Ping. You don’t have to remind me about that.”
“I’m glad you understand then. Your little lover is about to wake up, so get out of hell.”
After that, Yang Wei bid farewell as he teleported outside of the Pagoda.
“Finally… Yang Wei is improving at a decent rate. Hopefully, we still have enough time before they arrive.” Fan Ping mumbled as he disappeared from the area.
Meanwhile, Yang Wei reappeared in Jing Feng’s room where he quickly cleaned himself before hopping back to the bed.
Sometime later, Jing Feng woke up as she glanced around the surroundings.
“Finally awake?” Yang Wei smiled cheekily from the side.
“Un, I’m exhausted…” Jing Feng said weakly as she wrapped her arms around his waist.
“What time is it right now?” She asked.
“A little bit past morning time. I’m pretty sure Elder Shan and the others must be waiting for us in the lobby already.”
“Then they can wait a bit longer. After all, you are the star who helped the Swift Feather Wind Sect advance to the next round. A little late should be fine.”
Yang Wei chuckled softly as he kissed her forehead.
“When did my Jing Feng become such a lazy person?” Yang Wei asked. “I don’t want to get blamed by others for turning Jing Feng into an irresponsible person.”
Jing Feng clicked her tongue in annoyance.
“Wasn’t it all thanks to a certain person that wouldn’t let me take a rest?” Jing Feng snorted coldly as she pinched on his chest.
Yang Wei ignored the slight pain as he embraced her tighter. “What can I do about it, Jing Feng? You are so beautiful and sexy that I can’t even control my lust.”
“Save your flowery words to others. Can’t control your lust? Then explain why those girls couldn’t attract you.”
Yang Wei smiled bitterly. He was always at a disadvantage whenever they touched on this topic, so he decided to keep silent and wait for Jing Feng to get up by herself.
Jing Feng also knew this as she curled her lips upward in joy. “As long as you know… never argue against me because you will never win.”
Yang Wei nodded his head.
“Well then, almighty Jing Feng… they are really going to get suspicious if we don’t show up.”
“Dress me up… I’m still exhausted.”
Jing Feng then extended her arms wide. Her naked body was in full view for Yang Wei to see, but she couldn’t care less.
They had already done the deed multiple times and Yang Wei had seen every nook and cranny of hers.
What’s there to be embarrassed about then?
Sometime later, Yang Wei searched through her closet to find some suitable clothes for her to wear.
“Is this cloth ok?” Yang Wei asked as he showed a black layer of cloth.
Jing Feng glanced at it briefly before shaking her head.
“I wanna wear something light-colored today. After all, we are going to celebrate and not some mourning.”
“I see, then how about this one. Red-colored and amazingly designed clothes.”
Jing Feng flashed a gentle smile as she nodded her head.
With her decision made, Yang Wei gladly pulled her up from the bed gently as he helped her dress up.
Of course, his hand would occasionally accidentally touch her ample chest and butt.
“You are really getting way too cheeky lately, Yang Wei.” Jing Feng said.
However, she made no action to stop his hand from roaming around nor cover herself.
Sometime later, they left the room as they began walking toward the lobby.
It didn’t take long before they found Elder Shan and the rest of the disciples in a joyous mood.
“What are you discussing so happily?” Jing Feng asked as soon as she saw them.
“Isn’t it obvious by now? Apparently, the Purple Scorpion Sect had left Ling City last night secretly.” Shan Zhilan laughed aloud as she could imagine the humiliation they faced.
As a powerful sect, they had degraded down to the point where they needed to leave a city discreetly.
If this was still the usual arrogant and prideful Purple Scorpion Sect, they would never do such a thing. In fact, they would have made a loud announcement about their departure.
Jing Feng felt nothing about this situation because they deserved it.
“Anyone who uses poison should be condemned anyway.” Jing Feng spat as she took a seat down.
Realizing her mood, Shan Zhilan quickly swapped the topic as she glanced at the other disciples.
“Alright disciples, the next round will begin in a few weeks, so you will all have this free time to use. Though, I hope you will still spend some time in training since our opponent would only get more difficult.” Shan Zhilan said.
“Elder Shan, I heard there’s a great clothing store where we can make custom designs.” Lian Xinyue suddenly suggested where they will go.
“Instead of some clothing store that only you can enjoy, I suggest we head to the famous Flowery Restaurant. I have heard that a clan had tried to force marriage on the owner of the Flowery Restaurant, but in the end, the clan was annihilated.” Meng Yan intervened.
Shan Zhilan pondered for a moment before showing a jubilant expression.
“Both suggestions are great, so why not we go both instead.” She said calmly.
Meanwhile, Yang Wei’s face turned ashen white when he heard their suggestion.
‘Damn it… why are we going there?’ He cried inwardly.
